it was a reflection of the respect and fear they have about bill clinton. he has continued to set his sights on service. after eight years in office, he had seen the terrible effects of poverty and illness of those living in the developing world. in launching the clinton global initiative, he continues to widen the constellation of challenges in which he has applied his extraordinary talents and energy. limits on religious freedom, every impediment to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. after president of the united states, he could only become president of the world. the praise the respect he receives from both sides of the aisle says big volumes about his character. the man he defeated, former president george h. w. bush said, if clinton were the titanic, the iceberg would have sunk. it has less to do with this sharp political acumen and more to do with his deeply held values and ideals. bill clinton believes in an america that is tied in a single garment of destiny. our fates are bound together and we should work together. a man from hope contin

[laughter] we are both basketball fans, and governor christie used to have seats right behind mine at the big east tournament. i remember the first time i sat down and talk to him, i thought, this is going to wreck this guy's career. they will show pictures of him talking to me. maybe he can get elected in new jersey, but everybody else would say, oh my god, he is consorting with a liberal.

this was when bill clinton was president. finally he hit someone again and he came before my chord because that bumped up to being a felony. i understand. we took him to the board and released him, i often want to know, did you stick around long enough to watch them come the border or did you drive away after you dropped them off? this is a huge problem. with each one of these federal felony convictions, it means we are paying for a prosecutor, law enforcement to get these people, then a prosecutor. we are paying for a defense attorney for them. we are paying for the officers for the prosecutor, the offices for the law enforcement, the judges, the appellate courts, and the number one conviction is for federal felony reentry after they have been deported? when i start thinking about that fact, it becomes pretty clear the best thing this administration could do for this country is secure the border so they do not have to keepre-catching the people who have already been deported. to heck with how much a wall costs or drone cover

until june, 1963, and again this is something that bill clinton really seized on in his own assessment of kennedy when he gave this very moving speech about the importance of advancing civil rights. something that l.b.j. would obviously see as a torch that he would pick up and carry forward. host: passing the torch is the piece written by the former president, bill clinton, 42nd president assesses the civil rights accomplishments of the 35th. tranquility tweets in this. do you think j.f.k. would have gotten us out of vietnam had he lived? guest: this is an endlessly debated question. i'm sorry i hate to -- i just don't feel qualified to answer it. there's a wonderful piece in here that i think is a very, very important piece, actually, in understanding how we got into vietnam. it's an argument about kind of imperatives ic that deepened our experience there. the unwillingness of people to speak up and oppose this mission and the sidelining of experts over time. it's possible that john kennedy, you see it in the cuban missile crisis, again as he gets stronger over the course of his presi
